Mar 19, 2009 - no way! i agree yo-yo ma is a terrific musicain, but there is no beating du pre!

Logan2192 Says:

Mar 30, 2009 - You are a complete moron. Yo-Yo Ma is good, but vuxta is right, he is a wannabe Du Pre. Du Pre is the god of the romantic era, Yo-Yo Ma fakes his "passion" so much. E.g. - Inauguration ceremony. Oh and by the way, learn to spell. "Hormoney" is not a word.

Logan2192 Says:

Mar 30, 2009 - No you're right. When Rostropovich heard her recording, he took it off his repitorie and didn't play it in concert for the rest of his life.

Mar 30, 2009 - are you serious? yo yo ma FAKES his passion? okay you are just a musical genius aren't you...?

Logan2192 Says:

Mar 30, 2009 - You're right, "fakes" isn't really what I was going for. I guess exaggerates is more toward what I meant.

Mar 30, 2009 - u know what go suck a huge slopy dick... yo yo ma is better than this stupid slut u bitch ass homo...

Mar 31, 2009 - Wow. What a disgusting, unecessary and totally innapropriate comment.

vuxta1 Says:

Apr 13, 2009 - owch, wow, you people are relentless. i do think that ma exaggerates and we can all tell. but you still have to love the guy.. i mean, he is a living legend, since he was around the time of du Pre, and Rostropovich. I'm seeing him in concert! but I love du Pre. she is my favorite; she left us way too early. the Elgar was her most prized jewel, in my opinion, she mastered it so.

DrBananaCampbell Says:

Apr 24, 2009 - agreed. in my opinion, they all play the same pieces and shiz, but they're all so different as to how they play it and du pre, rostropovich and yo yo ma are 3 of my favourites. they're just brilliant. how they change tempo, how much emotion they show. its all different.

Aug 31, 2009 - She gives the Stradivarius all the justice it deserves! She makes that cello really SING!

milosbar Says:

Sep 14, 2009 - Please forgive my ignorance, but is jacqueline du pre using a score paper??

Lyrikloewe Says:

Sep 21, 2009 - She is absolutly adorable.

RenardTaquin Says:

Sep 30, 2009 - A solo never use a score paper when he plays in public for a concerto (for a sonata it's different). You are forgiven. What a wonderful and sensitive job ! Just love this concerto and the way she plays it ! It's just awesome !

jaywbe Says:

Oct 23, 2009 - she went to my conservertoire! favourite cellist of all time, possibly a favourite musician of all time. a great ambassador for music, her music is just AMAZING

philipjrichardson Says:

Nov 11, 2009 - Jacqueline duPre is the only cellist I have heard who can make the cello sing, weep, howl and roar in this concerto. The Barbirolli/LSO 1965 recording is still unrivalled after more than 40 years.

Nov 20, 2009 - @philipjrichardson Check out the live recording with Barenboim and Philadelphia c. 1970 or so.
